Remembrance

I was in CHC Powerhouse @ HOG this morn... I began thinking of my leaders who've shared their lives with me over the past years... Looking back, I've been in church for 8 years! Wow!!! Hahaha... Nothing to boast abt as this is just a small part of the lifetime which I'll be spending in church...

The 1st CGL I came into contact with was Khen Theen... He continues to inspire me. A teacher by profession and a teacher indeed. Always patient and having resources to share... He is always reading a book which is always faith-building! Amazing. I look up to him as my teacher... :)

Then Edwin became my CGL when we multiplied. He taught me the importance of having goals in my life and working hard to achieving them. That period of time was the time which my christian foundations are laid.

Subsequently Javiny took over our CG. During her leadership, I learnt lots... How to be a helper and supporter and encourager... She never fails to encourage me and challenge me to step out of my comfort zone. I love her so much that I want to help her to grow the group... Her vision became mine... She always tell us to be Spirit led. Our CG vision was to be a group of Spirit led believers. She never tells me what to do. Always tell me to pray and seek God for myself and to be led by the Spirit to do the right thing.

It wasnt easy for her to lead our CG as she came in as our new CGL, not someone who rose up within the CG... Yep... But she did great... She was there when i go thru tough times. Always willing to lend a listening ear.

She was the one who trained Ken up to be a CGL. Here he is, 4 years into this ministry. She gave Ken the stronger members during multiplication, and a great helper to her, she gave me to his group. To be his helper instead. Ken has always felt indebted to her... Like she gave him the opportunity and all... Discipled him...

I still remember, there was one day which she asked me to do some PA for her which I turned down cos it was our anniversary... Not exactly anni as in Feb but one of the month's 10th. She was nt angry or upset that I refused to help, but she given bought a $40 voucher for us to go and makan... Ken was still in army then... And I remember that place... Holland Village, English Rose Cafe... I really felt so blessed.

She also blessed us $$$ when we went for our 1st mission trip... That was after we multiplied!!! She's always so giving and I feel she really played a part in ensuring that our relationship works out fine.

She's my sis... An elder sis whom I nvr had... I love her lots and pray for her everyday that her business will do well...

Then we multiplied and Ken became my CGL. Hmmmm... How has it been being in the same CG as Ken? Hmmmm... I guess it's fine... Hahaha... I'm still his helper... I try to relax if the other ppl in the CG are willing to rise up. But I can and will come in and put my hands to the plough and get things done when they arent moving... I train up more disciplers and help disciple the members... Ken treat me as a member of the CG, it's more like us leading the CG together... But he doesnt talk to me abt issues abt me which he feels is not rite or I didnt do things rite... I share this burden with him and encourage him... This has been so for over the past 4 years and I dun think it'll change...

Well... This post is a post for me to remember the leaders (CG side) who have been part of my walk with God... I pray for everyone of them to be ever on fire for God, like how they've always preached to me when I was younger in the Lord... God bless u all... :) Hugs...
